Chunxiang accompanied the young master in the carriage, and before leaving, she begged the young master to take her, saying that she would serve at any time, and she also wanted to meet Qin Huai Bayan, who was famous in the south of the Yangtze River.

Under normal circumstances, in ancient times, men gathered, and women should not participate in it. It doesn't hurt for Chunxiang to stay in other places at that time, Li Xiangjun will show everyone his talent at that time, and it is okay to get acquainted with Li Xiangjun.

The carriage drove south, slowly moving forward, and Guo Wendong looked at the scenery along the way through the window.

Aside from the last time he took Haruka shopping, this is the second time he's gone out.

In modern times, the Qinhuai Scenic Zone is one of the most important scenery in Nanjing, which was famous all over the world during the Ming Dynasty.

"Ten miles of Qinhuai spring dream, six dynasties of smoke and moon Hui Jinling", this is the most true portrayal, ten miles of Qinhuai is the most prosperous place in Nanjing.

About to arrive at the destination, came to the north bank of the Qinhuai River, the buildings on both sides of the river are unique, there are many painting boats for people to play by the river, Guo Wendong looks south, can see the majestic city wall.

It's early afternoon, and the scenery is even more stunning in the evening.

The carriage continued to move forward, passing in front of the Jiangnan Gongyuan, which was built in the Song Dynasty, mainly for the purpose of scientific examination, Nanjing was the capital of the Ming Dynasty, many candidates in the southern region will concentrate here for the examination, it is the largest and most influential imperial examination room in history.

After passing the Jiangnan Gongyuan, it is the famous Confucius Temple.

Meixianglou is located on the south bank of the Qinhuai River, opposite the Confucius Temple, and the carriage stopped in front of the Meixianglou after crossing a bridge.

Guo Wendong got out of the car and looked at his watch again, the time was 2:20 p.m., and the agreed meeting time was Shen Shizheng (3 p.m.).

There were two young women wearing heavy makeup, standing at the gate.

One said: "Childe is here to get together with the Restoration Society?" ”

Guo Wendong nodded.

"Childe, please!"

Following the woman inside, first there was a corridor, then turn left and pass through the round gate, there was a small courtyard, there was a building on the right side of the courtyard, two stories high, the door was open, and the men's voices came from inside.

Follow the woman in, the hall here is spacious, there is a slightly higher position in the upper left, it should be used as a stage, there are two large eight immortal tables under the stage, one of which has five men sitting, Hou Fangyu is in it.

In the past, Guo Wendong had contacts with the four sons of the late Ming Dynasty (at this time known as the four sons of Fushe and the four sons of Jinling), among which he had the best friendship with Hou Fangyu.

"Wendong ......"

In addition to Hou Fangyu, the other three people at the same table greeted Guo Wendong.

Guo Wendong approached quickly, only to hear one person: "Wendong, it's good lately!" ”

Looking at this man, the other party was in his thirties, with an oval face, medium build, and a short goatee, and looked at him affectionately.

He is a person who has traveled through modern times, and has no memory of his previous master, so he naturally does not know him, and he can't help but scratch his head.

Hou Fangyu explained: "I told you that there was an unexpected incident on the second day of Wendong's wedding, and I couldn't remember many things after waking up. Wendong, let me introduce you to it. ”

He immediately stood up, pointed at the person just now, and said, "This is Fang Yizhi, the word is secret." ”

It turned out to be one of the four sons in the late Ming Dynasty, Guo Wendong had some impressions, his father Fang Kongzhi was a jinshi in the late Wanli period, the official to the governor of Huguang, and led the army to fight with the peasant army and performed well.

Because he was interested in the history of the late Ming Dynasty in his previous life, Guo Wendong learned about this.

Fang Yizhi stood up and bowed to Guo Wendong.

Guo Wendong also took a look.

Hou Fangyu pointed to the second person again and said, "This is Mao Xiang, the word is a frontier." ”

Venture out of the blue? Guo Wendong remembered that the woman who ventured into Xinjiang was also one of Qin Huai Bayan, named Dong Xiaowan.

Mao Xiang stood up and said with a kind attitude: "Wendong, although you don't remember a lot of things before, but I heard Chaozong say that compared with before, it is more different, and there are strange foreign goods, and you have made a lot of money!" ”

He was in his early thirties, of medium stature, wearing a square scarf, and seemed to be in a good mood on the surface, while Guo Wendong felt that he seemed to have a faint sorrow in his heart.

Guo Wendong said politely: "Bijiang is laughing, the little brother will definitely open your eyes this time." ”

Speaking of which, several people are looking forward to it.

"This is Chen Zhenhui, the word is fixed!" Hou Fangyu introduced again.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the four sons all arrived, they were all scholars, and their fathers were not Jinshi, at least they were also lifters, and everyone looked like Si Swenwen.

There were two other people at this table, and Hou Fangyu continued to introduce.

"Wendong, this is Huang Zongxi, the word is too chong, his home is in Yutao, Zhejiang, and he came to get together."

Hearing this name, Guo Wendong was surprised, this person is quite famous in history, he is erudite and talented, profound thoughts, modern times he is named a scholar, historian, thinker, geographer, astronomical almanacist, educator these six titles, because of his existence, there is also a special term, called "Huang Zongxi's law".

The two sides met for the first time, Huang Zongxi got up and bowed, and Guo Wendong replied with a long bow.

Hou Fangyu introduced the last one again.

"This is Wu Weiye, the word Jungong!"

The two sides then exchanged salutes.

After the introduction, Guo Wendong sat next to Hou Fangyu, and Hou Fangyu poured him tea.

At the time of the introduction, Yu Yufeng and Chunxiang had already brought in the items they brought and placed them next to the gate.

Both of them stood by the door, Yu Yufeng's duty was to protect his master, and Chunxiang's duty was to be at the disposal of the young master at any time.

In addition to this, there are two young women standing in the hall, both wearing the same costume, equivalent to the role of waitress.

In the ancient catering industry, waiters, that is, shopkeepers, were all made by men. Meixianglou is a famous green building in Nanjing, and women are more suitable for the role of waiters.

After Guo Wendong sat down, Fang Shi had time to look at the main building of Meixiang Building.

The first floor is uniquely decorated, with several calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls. Some calligraphy and paintings are ordinary words, but they are written in unique calligraphy; Some of the poems written in calligraphy and paintings, one of which was written by Hou Fangyu. In some corners of the hall, musical instruments are placed.

Looking to the second floor, there are several rooms, and above the door hangs a wooden plaque with a name engraved on it.

Being here, Guo Wendong felt a strong cultural and artistic atmosphere, such as Mei Xianglou, which was highly sought after by literati and scholars, such as Dong Xiaowan, Li Xiangjun, Liu Ru and other famous geisha, and eventually became literati women.

Hou Fangyu leaned into Guo Wendong's ear and whispered, "Wendong, you must have brought Western things here. ”

Guo Wendong himself wanted to take this opportunity to let everyone see modern objects and meet more characters, so he naturally brought a lot of things here.

He responded: "The younger brother came this time and brought some Western products for everyone to taste." Then he said loudly to Haruka next to the station: "Bring two boxes of chocolates and wafers." ”

Chunxiang always paid attention to the young master's side, and immediately took it out of the big bag after hearing it, walked quickly, and put it on the table in front of the young master.
